“The tour company can’t be blamed for how busy the Vatican was for our tour, however our guide seemed fairly oblivious as to where her group was. The journey started with half of our group getting stuck on one side of the street while she kept walking away with the other half. It took one person to run after her when we finally made it across so she could let us catch up. This was a continuous theme for the tour.
